問題詳情：

Just months after taking a first-aid course, Apryle Hammett came across a road traffic accident-- and jumped straight in to help.

Apryle, who learned first aid for her vocabulary role as a scout( 童子*) leader, was driving through Essex with her husband and two children when a striking scene occurred before them.

She recalled: “We could see a woman had been hit by a car and was lying by the roadside.   Fortunately, a passing doctor had already stopped and was treating her.”

Apryle didn’t hesitate (猶豫): “I asked my husband to speak to the driver, who was obviously upset, and then raced over to help.”

It was immediately clear that the woman was badly injured. Apryle held her head and spoke softly, keeping her calm and still while the doctor checked for injuries.

The acout leader said: “She was bleeding quite heavily from a head wound, which previously minght have frighted me. But I remember the Red Cross trainer had explained head wounds can bleed a lot.”

Fortunately the paramedics (醫護人員 ) arrived quickly, but Apryle continued to comfort the injured woman.

Altogether, she helped out for about half an hour until it became clear the situation was in hand.

She said: “Both the doctor and the paramedics thanked me for being so helpful. And later, I was relieved to hear the woman was in a stable (穩定的) condition.”

Looking back, Apryl said: “I am sure I’d have stopped to help even without my training, but having those skills meant I was much more confident and effective. I felt very calm, simply because I knew what to do.”

Now the Chelmsford mother-of two wants to encourage more people in her area to equip themselves with first-aid skills. And there was another clear benefit from her heroics. She explained: “I’m really glad my kids saw me responding. It’ll help them get the message about the importance of first aid.”
